Step 1 of 2 Select the folder you want to convert to XDFS File System. I look for the file where my game is (XBOX Folder on my desktop) I click next; Step 2 of 2 I click convert. it says "XBOX ISO Image successfully created!

I use GDFimage w/gui interface. You can find it on bearshare. Makes great xisos. Anybody got any tips on shrinking that new ninja gaiden? I took out dashupdate.xbe, downloader.xbe, update.xbe, and a couple of demos but it's still pwards of 5.5 gigs.

Go to balugabutt.com it will tell you what to delete to make it 4.7GB. You can delete the movies that have the same name but a j on the end.

SHAGGY
the host name reffers to "IP Address".
go back to Quads step by step and when it calls for host name it means IP Address. thats all.
If Im wrong Please someone correct me

I did something a little different to connect to my xbox and I think it might help those having trouble. Instead of changing the default gateway on my computer to match the xbox's, I changed it on the xbox to the subnet on my computer. To find yours, open command prompt (Start -> run -> cmd) and type "ipconfig." For example, my gateway is 192.168.1.1, so I just put that in the xbox. Then for the xbox's ip I used 192.168.1.3, and presto it worked, beautifully I might add. Doing it the way this guide shows not only didn't work for me, it also terminated my internet connection until I changed the settings back to what they were. Also, don't just change the settings and reboot or go back to the dash, go all the way down the menu and press save and exit. Hope I helped someone who's been having trouble.

Hey Paco. I just ead your problem from 4/ If it's not too late, when you are in step2/2 BEFORE you hit conver.t you hit that little button with the dots. It takes you to a screen where you enter the name of the completed iso, and your destination. Afterwards hit save and it takes you back to main screen. That's when you hit convert. It shuuld take a while once you hit convert so just let it work. It will tell you when its done. Sorry I didn't read your question more carefully earlier.if your still confused Skype me @ bobbyfree717

ok so i'm starting to get there with this backup thing but when it comes to burning them how do you know what the xbox live files are and if it doesn't have them how do you make the iso smaller to fit onto a normal sive dvd+r.
cheers

I made a topic about this as well, but just in case no one answers, here goes.
I have an Xbox game on my comp in these filetypes (If you can't see in the screen capture the filetypes are like "a51x-dgr.006")
Now, usually when I have filetypes ending in .00#, I just right click it and use WinRAR to extract them all to an iso, but when I right click these it says "add to Archive" and when I do, it puts it in a RAR format and when I extract the files from the RAR, it's just the files I started with. I'm having this problem on two games. Please help.

Following your tutorials I've succesfully connected via smart ftp to my xbox and even found the files I ripped to the hard drive,however,they won't let me drag and drop them to the folder on the desktop,which I feel is most un-cooperative of them(I put them on the E drive),is it the ftp program I'm using as to why the little sods are not co-operating or something else?

ant36, what you need to do is right click on the files you want and then from the drop down menu select download, download direct, and select folder. Then just select the folder on your pc where you want the files to go.
Who I am is who I've always wanted to be. Strange how sometimes it takes pain to shed the light of wisdom and understanding on things that the vision of knowledge itself would never have alowed us to see.

My problem now is that after creating the iso I get a corrupt message when I try to open thr rar file,I'm using the latest winrar.
Still the same problem,no matter what program I use,I have the files on my pc hard drive,qwix tells me the iso is completed succesfully but when I try to open the rar file it creates I just get a damaged archive message or similar.I've done this a dozen times today and the result is always the same.

Hi, I Don't know ur level of savy so i say this in noobie speak... First those files ur talking bout were made with winrar 3.20 or above so you should have winrar version 3.20 or higher to extract them...
OK first make sure all the files are in the same or it's own directory before u start.
If the file is going to be larger than x.GB u must have NTFS file system. Fat32 doesn't support larger than x.GB filesize.
OK Open Winrar first... after it is open using the little arrow on the left side to go up a level, navigate to the folder where you have the file types ending in .00#,blah blah blah.
Then with your mouse highlight or right button mouse-click >> "select all" (except the top folder) >>> Then use the "extract to" Icon on winrars toolbar, after you click it a display box will pop up... simply choose "OK". then the files will begin extracting & will be in an additional folder where you started from in the first step. Hope this helps, lates, jiz
""non newbie speak & if ur familar"" with using winrar/nero but the (right click isn't there) ''extract to'' on the contect menu.
Open winrar & navigate to the dir where the files are located, "select all" "extract to" done deal. :lol:
Hope it helps at least one person, lates, jizac_aka_lickablepig

I guess I should have said that I'm running xp pro,and the winrar version is 3.42,I extremely familiar with pretty much anything to do with a comp(I build them for a living),that being said when it comes to xbox I havn't a bloody clue,as for the rar files,they just won't open,everytime I try to extract,I get a corrupt message,I've tried xiso,craction and qwix.
If I try to open the files from winrar console I get a 'no archives' message,right clicking and a properties inspection gives me a size of almost 4gigs.
ok,I've tried everything but gdfimage and that because I can't find a decent GUI for it.
here's what I'm doing:
I have the latest winrar and all the other tools mentioned in the all the tutorials I can find.
I can ftp into my xbox with no problems at all using smart ftp,I can get the files to my desktop in a folder with no problems.
Then I've been firing up qwix (or one of the others) and telling it to make an iso,it goes through the process and reports NO errors.
I then attempt to open the rar file it makes and I get an archive error message,if I try to open it with the winrar interface I get a no files in archive message,but a properties check reports the file at 3.90 gigs.
